Whom Jesus calls His own!

When hope and faith shall pass away,
And love shall last for aye.
2 Lord Jesus, am I in that band,
And wilt Thou call me Thine?
Do I among the chosen stand
Whose lamps so brightly shine?
O let me not lie down to rest,
Till this I know, my Savior blest,
Till I can say, by grace restored:
"Thou know'st I love Thee, Lord!"
3 And even if with tears it be,
That this to Thee I say,
Yet Thou in grace wilt look on me
And wipe my tears away;
Yea, when but Thou who all dost know
In me canst find Thy love below
And own me Thine, then well is me,--
My all I have in Thee. Tune Title: [How blessed is the little flock]

When we from this world pass forever!
2 O help us, dear Father, and Christ, Thou the Son,
That gladly our course we may finish!

That we by Thy might
May fight the good fight,
Till won is the crown everlasting. Tune Title: [And now we must bid one another farewell]

Walk in fervent love to Thee,
In all woes for comfort flee
To Thy birth, Thy death and passion;
Till I see Thy full salvation. Tune Title: [Praise to Thee and adoration]

Evening of Life
Author: Henry F. Lyte Hymnal: Laudes Domini #80 (1890) Topics: Close of Service First Line: Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day Lyrics: 1 Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day;
Earth's joys grow dim, its glories away:
Change and decay in all around I see;
O thou, who changest not, abide with me!
2 Come not in terrors, as the King of kings;
But kind and good, with healing in thy wings,
Tears for all woes, a heart for every plea;
Come, Friend of sinners, and abide with me.
3 I fear no foe, with thee at hand to bless,
Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness;
Where is Death's sting? where, Grave, thy victory?
I triumph still, if thou abide with me.
4 Hold thou thy cross before my closing eyes;
Shine through the gloom, and point me to the skies;
Heaven's morning breaks, and earth's vain shadows flee;
In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me! Languages: English

To soothe their pain and sadness.

Through sorrow's night my sun shall be,
The shield of faith in battle;

My title as His child and heir,
"The kingdom's thine forever;"
That promise faileth never.

My soul was here so richly blest,
The bread of Life receiving.

So that its fruits shall never fail
Till my account is given
Before the throne in heaven. Tune Title: [How blest are they who hear God's word]
